The menswear looks featured throughout the Hero Magazine Issue 10 editorial both stand out and blend in. Stylist Elizabeth Fraser-Bell expertly handpicked high-end items that would suit the grungy, trailer park setting. Yet it is hard not to notice that the pieces don't fit in, in the end. Of course, this is due in large part to telltale pieces such as the oversized metallic bomber jacket by Haider Ackermann, Dries Van Noten’s chic floral printed blazer and the spry oxblood leather button down and shorts two piece set by Dior Homme.
Shot by photographer Fabien Kruszelnicki, the Hero Magazine Issue 10 editorial was shot on a sweltering day in Malibu, California, hence its title, 'Malibu Limits.' Starring male model Nick, there is a naive youthfulness to the photoshoot that is endearing.
